Excellent pic, Wolfgang. The year is 1975 or 1994?

Thanks, Pieter and Vlad, for the info (maybe not as difficult as yesterday). This helps for a correct description.

And the closest ferry is "Dong Yang Express Ferry No. 5" (Dong Yang Goseok Ferry No. 5), IMO No. 7320186, still sailing as the "Kirana II".

It's an excellent shot, also showing the tremendous progress of this area since the day this photo was taken...

Cheers

Vlad
